Beyond Reasonable Drought: Water and Culture in a Changing Climate

The San Diego Museum of Man

Beyond Reasonable Drought, a new exhibition that opened July 12, examines the ways in which culture and climate are intimately connected today as they always have been. People of the arid Southwest, for example, have always had an intimate relationship with water. Periods of drought have inspired people throughout time to innovate ways of dealing with dwindling water resources. Like their predecessors, people today must face the consequences of impending water shortages that will affect various residential, commercial, and agricultural interests.
